Re: how do you call...

[Mike & Diane Wise <apistowise@fgn.net>]

My understanding of F numbers is that it has nothing to do with wild caught or
domestic animals. There actually is no F0. Whether the plant or animal being
bred is wild or domestic the offspring of your 'starters' are F1, the offspring
of F1s are F2s, etc. Backbreaking offspring to parent doesn't usually apply in
this system.
